We're not really doing anything Halloween-y over here. Both David and I always trick-or-treated growing up. I'm not per se against it... as an adult with a child, it kind of now freaks me out. I love where we live, but not sure I would ever sent my tyke out to knock on strangers' doors. Not here. Alas... she is too young so I don't have to even think about it too much right now. Dress up is always fun though! -- In new clothes or in costumes! I am love love loving my new cape c/o Conversation Pieces. The perfect vintage/classic twist - warm and functional.

Also make sure you check out Karen London jewelry if you haven't already. Most of my go-to jewelry is from this great designer. Lots of celebrities like it too (name drop -- miley, rhianna, kristin stewert...)! You might recognize some of the pieces from Urban Outfitters stores. Great statement pieces!

i was going to write to check for razor blades too... but thought that was too scary. but i remember that being a big thing me and my friends were scared of -- that people would hide sharp things in our candy! is that just me? or was that everywhere?
